He isn't "losing" this money. This is called "paying tax like a responsible citizen and not hiding your money offshore" and we need to start recognising and applauding it.

Greta Thunberg arrested for holding a sign opposing genocide.

When peaceful protest is a crime, democracy is in deep trouble.

For years, S*n 'journalists' covered up the sexual abuse by a famous cis man while telling everybody to hate trans women in order to protect women.

This isn't even the first time this has happened.

How so many cis people don't see what's happening is revealing.

I fucking hate this shit.

This is bullying and abuse. If you’re part of a system like this, you’re a twat.

Don’t do it
Something that always strikes me about these reports is that parents withdraw their children when inflexible systems are put in place and they can't cope. So in the end it becomes a way of removing learners with higher levels of needs, whatever the original intention.

My constituent, Amu, is on Day 40 of their hunger strike in prison.

Last month, I requested an urgent meeting with the Justice Secretary to discuss their wellbeing.

He has now officially declined my request.

What an absolute disgrace.

I don't really post anymore, but I would like to carry on writing books at some point in the future.

Hate to be annoying, but any chance you could retweet so old twitter followers can find me if they want to? Going to delete my twitter, or at least abandon it on lock and let it die a slow death.

My biggest issue with bazball(and I've enjoyed a lot of it) is that it won't ever produce this sort of performance, batting 163 overs to draw. To save the game. Awesome.

My friend once wrote this about Tory budget day.

Sadly it rings every bit as true under a Labour government which is almost more shameful. Tories always gonna Tory but Labour should do better
